1. This is a contested discovery application which had been adjourned from a previous hearing.  It arose out of a collision between the plaintiffs’ vessel and the defendants’ vessel at night where there was suggested to be overtaking by the defendants’ vessel of the plaintiffs’ vessel thereby causing not only substantial damage to the plaintiffs’ vessel, but the loss of that ship.
